Fly little bird to Hiroshima
On the way a load
Speak the magic word to Hiroshima
Let the sky explode

Hiroshima!
Hiroshima!

Shadow of a man at Hiroshima,
Where he passed the moon
In a wonderland at Hiroshima,
Where he died too soon
And the world remembers his name
Remembers the flame was

Hiroshima...

Fly little bird to Hiroshima
On the way a load
Speak the magic word to Hiroshima
Let the sky explode
And the world remembers his name
Remembers the flame was

Hiroshima, Hiroshima, Hiroshima...

Hiroshima was the flame!
Know his face, we know his name!
We're remembering the place was here!

Shadow of a man at Hiroshima,
Where he passed the moon
In a wonderland at Hiroshima
Where he died too soon
And the world remembers his name
Remembers the flame was

Hiroshima, Hiroshima, Hiroshima...

Hiroshima!
Hiroshima!

Oh oh oh oh!
Oh no no no!
Oh no, don't do it!

sun came up this morning
broke into my room
i turned the tv on
the sun was red
i heard about the news
that turned me upside down

it's hard when you see it
there's torture and pain
i still have this feeling
there's something left to say

life may be a big insanity
but love will conquer hate to all eternity
don't you know
we are strong
life may be a big insanity
but there is more to life than reality
cause our hearts
make us strong

picking up the phone
the pictures always change
children playin in the streets
talking to somebody
i can only watch
til i get on my feet

dark times and mean crimes
they can't beat my dreams
the eyes of a child tell me
something's left to say

life may be a big insanity
but love will conquer hate to all eternity
don't you know
we are strong
life may be a big insanity
but there is more to life than reality
cause our hearts make us strong

i got something on my mind
makes me sad and makes my cry - oh no
johnny wanna live

just an ordinary day
an animal will pass away - oh no
johnny wanna live

who's to say he got no rights
even not a right to life
don't know why it leaves you cold
don't know how to make it show - oh no
johnny wanna live
johnny wanna live

got to give his skin away
for coats they wear on summerdays - oh no
johnny wanna live

beauty aid and all the rest
come directly from a test - oh no
johnny wanna live

through his eyes i look inside his heart
he can feel like me and you
can't defend himself cause he can't talk
and this is why i talk you

johnny isn't just a name
he stands for every creature's pain - oh no
johnny wanna live
johnny wanna live

go and try to look inside his heart
you can find your own mistakes
try to hide them thinking he can't talk
but he can read them in your face

i got something on my mind
it makes me sad
and it makes me cry - oh no
let him live

tell me why it leaves you cold
i swear
i'm gonna make it show - oh no
johnny wanna live
johnny wanna live
